Adaptive Machine Vision
This is a 1988 technical report by William W. Stoner of Science Applications International Corporation, prepared for the US defense research community on adaptive machine vision for detecting missiles. Its pictures are grainy, high-contrast black-and-white plots: a decay curve over time, a circuit diagram, a dark field of bright squares with a glowing arc, and contour line drawings of cone-shaped objects, showing how detection signals and object outlines can be rendered as abstract technical graphics.
